Even the whole world is trying to match us up

Chapter 171 Senbon Torii
The sunlight shines through the dense woods and onto the ancient torii gate, creating a mottled feeling of light and shadow.

The golden light and dark brown wood complement each other, exuding a simple and mysterious atmosphere.

Countless torii gates wind up along the mountain road. At a glance, it seems like a road leading to the divine world.

This is the most famous attraction of Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine - Senbon Torii.

"Wow!"

"Are there all torii gates in front of this place?"

"It looks a bit earthy."

"Why are you talking? You are disrespecting the gods!"

"You two are so noisy. Can you please be quiet?"

The indistinguishable quintuplets walked together and expressed their opinions.

"Although I've seen it in some photos or cartoons, the real scene is still more spectacular." The girl walking at the back looked up at the light and shadow, with the corners of her mouth raised slightly.

"It's great for taking pictures." The girl at the front held up her camera.

"Then take a group photo and record it." A girl clasped her hands and suggested happily, "The group photo of our sisters is also very precious."

"Have we ever taken a group photo of the five of us? It should have been when we were watching the fireworks, right?"

“It seems like I haven’t taken any photos since I started practicing and traveling in elementary school.”

"Well, since it's a group photo, Nino should also come over."

"Ha~? Then who will take the photo?" The girl named Nino poked her little face out from behind the SLR camera, feeling a little excited.

"Please help boys!" A lively and cheerful girl raised her hand and suggested loudly.

"The boys walked too fast and couldn't see anyone at all." One of the girls looked up and said softly in the sunshine.

"I'll catch up!" The girl who just spoke loudly immediately took big steps and was ready to run up.

"Sitsuye, no need, just ask a passerby to help." The girl who looked like the eldest sister among the five stopped her, stood on the steps, and looked back down.

The warm sunshine shines on a boy, and the golden light complements the camera hanging around his neck.

The other party had a gentle smile on his face and walked towards this side with what could be said to be a joyful pace.

He kept mumbling something to the girl following him.

And the other party nodded in response to him from time to time.

"Sorry to disturb you two." The eldest sister interrupted their quiet atmosphere with an apology.

"Well, hello..." The boy who had just resisted Senbon Torii said mid-sentence. He stopped smiling and froze, as if something was blocked in his throat.

His eyes widened like brass bells.

"You... know me?" Seeing this, the eldest sister was very confused, her eyes were as big as bells, and she asked slightly embarrassed.

As his body straightened slightly, his chest trembled inconceivably.

Eye-catching.

He knew them, of course he knew the five sisters in front of him.

It even feels more and more incredible. Do they really exist?

Damn Fuutarou!

Being both men, the young man was naturally so jealous that he made a face in his heart.

"Yeah, sister Ichika, I am your senior ball... no, male fan." Halfway through his words, he felt the death gaze, and his voice and tone took a sharp turn.

"Hello, hello, can you please take photos for our sisters?" Nakano Ichika smiled warmly.

After she entered high school, she worked privately as an actress.

But I really didn’t expect to meet fans who know me here.

However, it should be a normal thing to ask fans to take photos or something.

What's more, the handsome boy in front of her doesn't seem to be a big fan of hers.

My girlfriend is so beautiful, she shouldn't be a sleazy stalker.

"No problem, I'll take care of it." The boy held up his SLR camera and assured him, "I'm a professional."

Originally, Nakano Ichika thought he was very reliable. After all, someone who has never studied photography would not buy a valuable camera and hang it around his neck, right?

But when she saw the girl walking with him let out a sigh, she suddenly realized that things were not that simple.

"Wow, wow, wow, Minister Hatsukano, what do you mean?" The naive child suddenly cried out in pain while holding his head.

"Member Natsume, please show your true skills and don't let the situation like that happen again. I don't want to see you bring a camera to court." The mature adult folded his hands on his chest, his eyes were cold and his voice was incomparable. gentle.

It is as clear as sweet spring water, and those who drink it will become well-behaved.

"Understood, sir." Natsume Qingyu put his legs together and saluted.

This childish move made several girls look at each other and smile, and their clear laughter covered up the birdsong in the forest.

Under the solemn torii, it is a little less solemn and a little more smart.

Hatsukano Suzune's face was ashen, and she looked through the torii gate into the distance, as if she didn't recognize the silly boy next to her.

"That's great."

Seeing this interesting couple agree, Nakano Ichika put on a pure smile on his face and politely asked, "Then I'll help you two."

Natsume Kiyoha has always been quick with her hands and feet.

He took over their SLR cameras, briefly adjusted the parameters, and quickly pointed the lens at them.

"Come on, everyone, look at the camera." He ordered and lowered his body slightly.

Keeping the camera roughly parallel to their knees will make the photos look better and have longer legs.

Let me state in advance that he has absolutely no selfish motives.

"Everyone should be happy." He once again fine-tuned the camera lens.

Yotsuba, who was standing on the far left, gestured with scissor hands as if receiving instructions, and showed a bright smile.

The other four people also showed their own photo-taking poses that fit their personalities.

Click.

A new photo has been released that all five girls are full of praise for.

"Your sisters are very energetic." The professional photographer commented while looking at the negatives in the camera.

"...How do you know they are all my sisters?" Nakano Ichika became alert.

"Under normal circumstances, wouldn't the oldest one stand up and negotiate?" Natsume Qingyu put a question mark on his head and asked calmly, "What's more, how can there be two identical leaves in this world? Can you tell them clearly? Aren’t people basic to each other?”

"So that's it, hahaha." Nakano Ichika scratched the back of his head and laughed innocently.

Why do they feel like they are not very smart?

Maybe they really aren't very smart.

This was the conclusion he reached after thinking of the beautiful report cards of the five girls in the comics.

"That sounds nice, but let's stand together and mess up the order. You won't be able to tell who is the elder sister and who is the younger sister." Nakano Nino was a completely violent locomotive. When he saw this, he stood up unconvinced. , talking about the 'guessing' game that they are proud of.

After all, only parents in this world can tell them apart.

Not even Fuutarou, the tutor I’ve been with for a while!

"Nino." As the eldest daughter, Ichika Nakano called her sister's name affectionately, trying to stop her from misbehaving.

Erno only responded with a cold snort.

"As long as you introduce them carefully, of course you can tell the difference." Natsume Qingyu raised his neck and answered the words quite confidently.

But as soon as he said it, he regretted it.

Because his eyes quickly scanned the five girls.

Clothes, cheeks, height...

I can't find any difference in appearance.

Even recalling just now, the difference in their timbres is negligible.

How can it be repaired? It’s all because of the man’s damn desire to win.

It looks like something is going to happen...

"Then let's give it a try?" Nakano Nino seemed to notice Natsume Qingyu's troubled look, and smiled like a little devil.

"Try and you will die." Natsume Qingyu could not control himself like an unconditioned reflex, and responded quickly like a couplet. He really wanted to put his hands on his face.

But now that the matter has come to this, it can only be treated as a living horse.

The five sisters were also quite confident. After discussing it, they started walking almost at the same time.

In front of them, the order was disrupted several times.

"Come on, let's talk about it."

The vermilion color of the torii was mixed with the golden light, and the five girls stood neatly.

For the first time in his life, Natsume Qingyu had the illusion that an emperor was choosing a concubine, and he almost said something bad like, "My beloved concubine can live without any ceremony."

He thought for a moment and cleared his throat.

"Two Nai, three nine, five months, one flower, four leaves."

Suddenly.

The five girls looked at each other, as if frozen by an invisible force.

The expressions were different, but they all revealed a deep sense of incredulity.

At this moment, their worldview was completely overturned.

When could they be so easily distinguished by outsiders?

Of course, the five of them were not the only ones who were shocked.

Natsume Qingyu also looked to her side in confusion: →_→

Hatsukano Suzune looked over: ←_←

Because they both said the same thing.

"Forget it...forget it, you guys are awesome." Nakano Nino blushed for some reason and admitted with difficulty.

"How... do you tell them apart?" The question was asked by Nakano Miku, who had been silent.

Not only her, but the other four sisters, including Hatsukano Suzune, all looked over.

Natsume Kiyoha
"Although everyone's appearance is somewhat difficult to distinguish, they actually have different personalities."

Natsume Qingyu looked back at the foot of the mountain and smiled heartily.

"Just like the Senbon Torii Gate, they all look the same from a distance, but in fact they are different from a closer look. There are different words written on the back of each Torii Gate, which are the names of the donors and their wishes. The reason why everyone is going up the mountain seriously When I went there, I didn’t notice it because from the front, each torii gate is the same. But after climbing to the top of the mountain and going down the mountain seriously along the same road, you will find that each of them has its own differences.”

"A thoughtful person will one day try to understand other people's wishes." At this time, the wind blew through his hair.

Natsume Qingyu would not tell them, in fact, he did not distinguish at all.

The reason why I say this is because while helping Fuutarou, I can also make myself look more handsome.

As a man, you need to save face.

And the way he can tell them the corresponding names is,
Remember the corresponding names firmly, and when they start to move, the location information of the names will be updated quickly.

Think of the whole process as the 'Sanxian Cave Bowl Changing Game'.

Only this time there are five bowls.

But for him who possesses the 'most powerful brain', it is no problem at all.

On the contrary, it was Hatsukano Suzune who made him a little curious. Did she operate in the same way as him?

He was curious.

"Are you a top student?" Satsuki Nakano, who took out snacks from nowhere, said decisively while watching.

"..."

For a moment, Natsume Qingyu wondered if he was playing the piano to a cow.

They who have failed grades should be able to understand, right?

"As a thank you for taking the photo, let me take one for you too." Nakano Nino coughed slightly and suggested this as an apology for offending you two.

"Oh, I'm sorry to bother you." Before Hatsuno Suzune could give her opinion, Natsume Kiyoha quickly handed over his SLR camera.

good thing.

"Let me state in advance that my skills are not good and I will not accept criticism." Before he got the camera, Nakano Nino had already begun to lose his responsibility as a party.

"Come and read with me." Natsume Qingyu took off the SLR camera, adjusted the parameters according to the environment, and handed it over.

"What?" Nakano Nino took the camera, a little confused.

"Three essentials for taking photos: Beautiful model! Beautiful model! Beautiful model!" Natsume Qingyu muttered while popping his fingers, "So, feel free to take photos boldly."

Faced with his narcissism, Nakano Nino was slightly speechless.

"You two, come closer." Nakano Nino squinted one eye and looked at the camera while motioning to the two models with his hand.

Natsume Kiyoha didn't move, but Hatsukano Suzune approached.

"Come closer." Nakano Nino urged again.

Natsume Kiyoha still didn't move, but Hatsukano Suzune took a step closer.

"Okay, that's it." Nakano Nino didn't care. Aren't they two lovers?
Why are you so reserved?

All stood upright.

Not that it doesn't look good.

But how serious it is like taking wedding photos!
"3, 2, 1..."

The countdown starts when you press the shutter.

Wisps of warm sunlight fell from the gaps between the birdhouses, and the light path was clearly visible.

Natsume Qingyu remained stunned in place. He recalled the long-ago question and had a new answer.

'Why can some people see the sun, but life remains bleak? '

Because the light shines on you, but you keep staring at your own shadow.

It's true that being overly emotional is killing yourself slowly.

But it is true that excessive rationality will make life lose its beauty.

Therefore, he still believes that people will always go crazy.

Under the blue sea and blue sky, everyone should live for themselves.

Just like Adler's central idea.

and so……

Master Hanada only does what he wants to do.

As for the consequences...

More to come later.

"Eggplant." Nakano Nino pressed the shutter.

Click.

At the moment of taking the photo, Natsume Qingyu smiled happily and brightly.

There is no malicious and funny exaggerated expression like in a group photo, only sincerity that blends into the sunshine.

Because he boldly stretched out his arms and put his arms around the shoulders of the girl next to him.

Let her stick it over.

A little closer to myself.

The girl bumped into his solid chest.

Countless emotions exploded on his face.

Surprised, blushing, at a loss...

It was all captured.

The small photo is filled with countless torii gates.

The world of autumn is still crimson.
